“O praise the name of the Lord our God. O praise His name forevermore. For endless days, we will sing Your praise. Oh Lord, oh Lord our God (Hillsong).

I recently finished studying the book of Joshua. I never thought I could learn so much from an Old Testament book full of cities and king’s names that are hard to pronounce.

One recurring theme of Joshua is: The people’s obedience toward God and God’s faithfulness toward them.
Let’s talk openly about biblical beauty and confidence. It’s easy for us women to distort what being a confident and strong image-bearer of God looks like. Some of us try so hard not to be the timid and quiet woman, so we come across as intimidating or demanding attention. Others of us try so hard not to be an intimidating and demanding woman, so we come across as non opinionated or withdrawn, in fear of others.
